Please remember
From age 55 (increasing to 57 from 2028) you can start taking money out of your pension, normally 25% of which is tax-free and the rest as income, which will be subject to income tax. If you are planning to take money out of your pension in the near future, you are entitled to free, impartial guidance from Pension Wise. You can access Pension Wise on the MoneyHelper website or call 0300 330 1003.
Current pensions and tax legislation and HMRC practice could change in the future. This may affect the value of your investments and pension benefits you receive from the Nucleus Modular iSIPP. In addition, your individual circumstances will impact the tax treatment of each of the products in the Nucleus Modular iPlan and may also be subject to change in the future.
It is important to note that investments can go down in value and you therefore could get back less than you invest. To understand the risks associated with investing, we strongly suggest you read our guide to investment risk.
